Spinaci alla ButterflayHow to sow butterflay spinach successfully outdoors?
To sow Butterflay spinach outdoors, you need to wait until the frosts have passed, usually in early spring. Prepare the soil by weeding and working it deeply so that it is loose. Spinach prefers soil rich in organic matter, so you can add compost or well-decomposed manure.
Create shallow furrows about 30 cm apart. Sow the spinach seeds 5 cm apart. Cover the seeds lightly with soil and tamp gently.
It's important to keep the soil moist, but be careful not to over-water to avoid rotting the seeds. Butterflay spinach prefers a sunny or lightly shaded position.
Maintain the soil moist.
Keep an eye out for weeds and remove them regularly so as not to smother the young shoots. Once the plants are well developed, you can harvest the leaves to enjoy their delicious flavour in your salads and cooked dishes.
